Cover Feature: 

The Water Balance or Budget Equation can be treated as the mother of all types of hydro-metereological equations.The equation is derived from Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy and states that inflow of water is equal to outflow of the same.If there exist an unequality,then it will contribute to the existing storage of water of the region.Precipitation and Inflows are accounted under Inflow and Runoff,Ground Water Outflow(contributed by infiltration) and Evapo-Transpiration is treated as Outflow.We can find any one of the variables from the equation if the other ones are already known. 

Summary : Just use Water Budget Equation to solve most of your hydrologic problems

Do You Know ?: 

Subsurface Return Flow can be defined as that amount of water which ex-filtrate back to the surface after being infiltrated in the up-slope portion of the hill.

Five ideas to open startups in water filter industry

  Below are five innovative startup ideas related to water filters: 1. Develop an app or device that can monitor the water filter candles and provide notifications to the user when maintenance or replacement is required. This could help homeowners keep track of the health of their water filter and ensure that it's functioning optimally at all times. 2. Create an in-situ water quality monitoring device and app for home water filters. This device would provide users with real-time information about the quality of their water and identify any potential issues that need to be addressed. This could be especially helpful for homeowners who rely on well water or live in areas with poor water quality. 3. Reuse wastewater from reverse osmosis filters by channeling it through a gravity filter. This would allow homeowners to save money on their water bills and reduce their environmental footprint by reusing water that would otherwise go to waste. 4. Design an in-situ energy monitoring device ...

What was in news last week in the World of Water and Power Industry ?

Indian Government Approves INR 12,461 Cr Support for 31,350 MW Hydro Electric Projects The Indian government has recently approved a budgetary support of INR 12,461 crore to facilitate the development of 31,350 MW of Hydroelectric projects, aiming to boost the hydro power sector by providing funding for necessary infrastructure development like roads and bridges in remote locations where these projects are often situated; this scheme will run from FY 2024-25 to FY 2031-32 Click here to learn more. "The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced nearly $16.7 million for 25 small business-led hydropower and marine energy projects..." The US Department of Energy has allocated $16.7 million for 25 small business-led hydropower and marine energy projects through the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer programs. The projects, focusing on hydropower and marine energy, aim to advance water power technologies, balancing electricity grids with rene...

Five Models Traditionally Used For Electrical Load Predictions : Issue 1 of WENexus Letters

Load forecasting is a technique used by power companies to predict the power or energy needed to balance the supply and load demand at all times. A load model is a mathematical representation of the relation between the demand and supply of power to a system, specifically, power generating units like thermal or hydropower plant. Based on the forecasted load, the mechanism to generate power is adjusted. This way power plant conserves the fuel used in power generation and also minimize the cost of running the plant(i.e., operational cost). This edition of WENexus Letters is dedicated to 'load prediction models' which are extremely important for sustaining the profitability of any type of power plant.
